I was in Colorado this week and we were taking about how much the area is booming. One of the locals said they're constantly seeing Texas license plates because of a huge influx of oil & gas folks.
Yeah the natives really hate us up there.  I mean, lots of people hate arrogant Texicans, but Colorado folks REALLY hate us.

One spring break down in South Padre, I was chatting with this girl who went to Colorado State and was down with some friends for spring break at the beach.  She went on and on about how much she hated Texans coming up to Colorado and infesting her ski mountains.   She failed to see the irony.

Don't worry, Coloradoans hate California transplants more (just like everyone else). They hate that Californians are fleeing California policies and then get to Colorado and start voting for California policies.

I only hate Iowans.  They drive slowly in the fast lane.

Was chatting with an Auburn fan as we Waited for the hotel shuttle to SFO.  He is cautiously optimistic.

Florida is going to be New York and Chicago at some point. East Coast = New York. West Coast = Chicago. Not sure where I will turn to when it happens.

Y'all can have Florida. I'll cling to earthquake country as long as I can, though I wouldn't mind spending more time in the Midwest in the Fall when I can dial work back.

Florida is going to be nice for us in the winter. Kenosha is going to remain fantastic in the summer. The only problem will be that my tires will have to touch Illinois roads to get back and forth.

STILL?

It was that way when I went on my first ski trip over spring break 1976.  It seems that they would have acquired some immunity by now.

Thought I read that during the Late Unpleasntness in the 1860s units from both states had some bloody clashes being far out in the western theater
